Riga Crossed Keys Tax Flax Seals Click Here for more Riga History and Tax Seals Riga obtains its flax chiefly from White Russia and Marienburg in Livonia. Riga flax seems to deserve the preference of any imported from the Baltic. It is the growth of the provinces of Marienburg, Druania, Thiesenhausen and Lithuania. The best Marienburg is called simply Marienburg M or Marienburg Clean. The second quality cut GM and the third Risten Dreyband RD. Of the three other provinces the first quality bears the name of Rakitzer as Druania Rakitzer DR, Thiesenhausen Rakitzer TR. and Lithuania Rakitzer LR. The cut flax of these three provinces is the second quality and to the third quality belong the Badstub and Cut B and BG, the paternoster PN, and Hafs Three Band HD. Badstub and Paternoster is the refuse of the Rakitzer flax and the Three Band. The refuse of the former sorts and consequently very ordinary.
These seals were found mainly on the continent of Europe.
